WhatsApp for Windows Phone gets a minor update

WhatsApp team pushed out a new update to the Public/Stable version of its App on Windows Phone. The company has pushed the app to new version 2.17.88.0. There are no new features to be seen with the latest update. Hence we presume that the update is a bug fixing and performance improving update.

After release of the Status feature, lot of users have complained that they have been receiving posts from Strangers/Unknown Contacts. The update has been pushed out by the Team to address the issue.

The company is also currently internally testing the Old Status feature relaunch, which is being requested by lot of users. The company has renamed it as Tagline and in a recent beta update it has been renamed as About and Info. The team is currently working on renaming the Old Status while testing it internally. Hopefully we should be able to get the Old Status back with a new name very soon.
